According to a new study, 'a non-invasive brain-to-brain interface (BBI) can be used to allow one human to guess what is on the mind of another human'. Mind reading might not be as improbable as many people believe, says a study published by researchers at the University of Washington.

Maybe you've had or heard about a pet cat on Prozac, or a dog that doesn't quite seem like itself in the weeks following the death of another animal in the home. On the one hand, it's hard not to question whether there is some owner-projection or anthropomorphism happening here. But on the other, some scientists are starting to seriously investigate the inner lives of animals, including potential signs of mental illness.

           We’ve modified our behavior so we can text and walk

Texting – or checking social media or reading/responding to mail or reading the news or checking the weather or watching a video – while walking is a pretty common phenomenon. It’s so common that most people who own a mobile device have become texting walkers.

Research suggests that these texters adopt protective measures to minimize the risk of accidents when walking. They’re less likely to trip because they shorten their step length, reduce step frequency, lengthen the time during which both feet are in contact with the ground, and increase obstacle clearance height. Taken together this creates an exaggerated image of walking, but it apparently slows the walker enough so that he registers some of what is happening around him and can compensate for it.

Que mudanças no comportamento dessas pessoas são decorrentes da adaptação à tecnologia apresentada no texto?
